Within a word template I want a "Page { PAGE }" in the header starting from page number 2. I accomplished this by marking the 'set first page differently' within the header/footer setup dialog box.

Unfortunetaly the page number in the header is not updated. I do have to enter the header manually and force an update with F9.

What I want to know is the following: Is there a way to force this update with every new page that is created? I already know you can create a macro, but I want a function which is triggered without interference/ action of the user. Is there an event which is triggered in conjunction with the creation of a new page? All suggestion on automation of this are welcome.

Many thanks in advance for your kind support.

Kind regards.

Hi

Tools-Options-Print tab

Check Update Fields and everytime Print or Print Preview happens, all fields are updated

-vemaju

I already tried that option, but it doesn't seem to work.

I have defined a header with the option 'First page differently' (no content in header) and the section as 'continuous'. The second page should print 'Page 2', but it prints 'Page 1'. I have to get into the header and manually update the field (F9).

Anybody can help me with the option of using VBA (WithEvents, Fields.Update) to solve this problem?
